Release Notes

Known Issues
SYSCFG Issues
● In DRAC 5, the --virtualmedia and --vflash options do not work if there is an active virtual media session. Disconnect the
virtual media using the DRAC GUI. Log into DRAC. Click Media > Virtual Media > Disconnect.
● The syscfg --bootseq command detects CD-ROM with SAS/SATA controllers as unk.emb.1.
● On R815, syscfg power --profile option sets apc. Though apc is not supported on R815, SYSCFG does not throw an error
message.
● The option for powerctl, which is softshutdown, does not work on Windows PE.
● On Windows PE 3.0, when you run the syscfg command to list all available options, if you press CTR + C before the
command fully executes, an error message is displayed. Click OK. You can ignore the message.
● The --solbitrate option in solcfgparams and the --mgscommbitrate option in serialcfgparams accept a baud rate of 57600,
but tools such as "ipmish" and "solproxy" do not function at that baud rate for PowerEdge systems.
● The legacy attribute values enable and disable are also supported for Dell’s 12th generation of PowerEdge systems for
backward compatibility. In future releases, these arguments might be deprecated. Try to use the values shown in help
message for BIOS options for Dell’s 12th generation of PowerEdge systems.
● DTK 5.5 does not boot on Dell PowerEdge T100. PowerEdge T100 has a BIOS version that is incompatible with the current
HAPI drivers.
● Intel(R) Gigabit 4P I350-t rNDC card x32 driver shows the following warning message “Windows cannot verify the publisher
of this driver software” on Win7 x32, while injecting due to expired certificate.
RAIDCFG Issues
● If both the software and hardware RAID is enabled, raidcfg will show the same controller ID for both the controllers. Disable
either software raid or insert the hardware raid other than PCIe slot
● You can assign up to 10 Global hot spares using Raidcfg. Use the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage
Management for assigning more than 10 Global hot spares.
● S300 controller CachePolicy setting is Not Applicable. Hence VD created with different cachepolicy settings from OROM
utility will be displayed as "Not Applicable".
● RAIDCFG does not support Non RAID (Volume) mode on s100/s300/S110 controller.
● On Dell PERC H310 controllers, conversion of a RAID Capable Disk to Non-RAID disk and vice versa is not supported using
RAIDCFG.
RACADM Issues
● If you use virtual media to boot into Windows PE, executing certain RACADM commands may cause Windows PE to crash.
● After generating the rac configuration file using the racadm getconfig -f <file_name> command, comment out
the following properties in the configuration file before you update a configuration using the racadm config -f
<file_name> command:
○ #cfgRacTuneCtrlEConfigDisable=0
○ #cfgRacTuneLocalConfigDisable=0
● VLAN objects (cfgNicVLanEnable, cfgNicVLanId, and cfgNicVLanPriority) displayed using the local RACADM command
racadm getconfig -g cfgLanNetworking or VLAN objects generated in the configuration file using the local
RACADM command racadm getconfig -f <file name> do not contain the leading "#" symbol, which indicates that
they are read-only.
Windows PE Issues
● Running partcfg.bat may fail when virtual media is enabled. For the hard disk, partcfg.bat uses the driver letter "c:". When
virtual media is enabled, sometimes, the virtual device gets assigned with the drive letter "c:" And, partcfg.bat execution
fails. To run partcfg.bat successfully, either disable the virtual media or use the diskpart command to assign a free driver
letter for partcfg.bat.
● Windows PE 3.0 and 4.0 for 64-bit do not support racadm.exe for DRAC 4.
